Frustrating - Anyone know how to make a call or edit a contact from an SMS??

Hi all, I'm finding it frustrating that there is no way to edit a contact's details or quickly make a call from viewing an SMS, is there a tweak/patch for this or am I doing something wrong??

close input program like keyboard, press up and down key to highlight sms, and press call

Solved.
Cheers, It's a bit annoying that you can't do it from the Flo view, and is a bit awkward, however this method also works to get to contacts too if you press the center button.
Thank You.

just press more (left buton)
in the list of sms's press the phone button. you will be able to call that person.
you do not need to close the keyboard.

If u dun close keyboard u cant select the message, u'll highlight text instead

what about just hitting the green button key ? that works for me

when i press more in the tf3f sms screen i go to the sms list.
if i have a keyboard there or not does not make a difference.
as soon as i press the call key, i can make a phonecall. to the selected person.
if i press up or down the next message is selected and i can call to that person.
what are you doing different?

perhaps your message is already highlighted. u can only call, forward, etc, when the message is highlighted. U'll see a lightblue highlight on the message.
When u're replying a message, no message is highlighted, hence, no forwarding etc

but when you reply to a message you are in a different screen.
i am talking about the sms overview.
so to call someone you received a message from it is only two clicks, instead of 1 click as the first poster wanted.

lol, probably misunderstanding. we both obviously have no problems and threadstarter also no problems already, so, case solved lol

you could say that

Thanks everybody for your input, yes the solution works.
If I'm in the single SMS mode (i.e. the SMS "old style" list I have no problems accessing contact details or making a call.
The threaded SMS mode proves to be more difficult, however by highlighting a message (either pressing up, or down then up, or closing the keyboard) then you can access the number by pressing the call button.
The Quick SMS view in the HTC FLO mode though proves the most difficult only allowing you to select the message to open up the Threaded SMS view. This is the mode I wanted to make a call directly from or access there details, however I don't think that is possible.

In T3DFlo, how to call the no. of the message i am reading?

Dear Bro,
I am a Nokia convert to Diamond, i was wondering when i received an sms and i would like to call that no. instead of reply, is there a shortcut way?
Cos used to it in Nokia when i view an sms i can just press the call button to call the no. which the sms from.
But in T3DFlo, i can't, is there anyway? or any tweak or software which i can do?
Thanks in Advance.

Just click on the persons name/number at the top of the text thread. That will then open the call history log with that person and you can press call to phone them.

Thanks unwire54, but your method only works if the person is already in my contact list, if the person is not in the contact list it will prompt me to add the person to my contact list... if i click no it will dismissed and i back in the message window, cannot call.
Hence i need a way / tweak / app to allow me to call the no. (which the sms was sent from), no matter whether the person is in my contact list.
Is there a way?

anyone knows?

go to the sms, be sure you are in the reply box but dismissed the keypad and press the call button. another method is go to all message scroll down to the message but not opening it and then press the call button

THank you very much, I have learnt very well xDD
But I think that touch flow3d needs improvements, because I would prefer to can call without enter in windows mobile's interface

yea i agree

In my old Wizard when you where reading a message just pressed the call button and it asks for number confimation and then press call againan you will dial the person that set the message.
However I thinks its not posible via Touchflo3D app, you need to be in the messages already.

One Button 911

I have searched the forum and Google for this.
I have had some medical problems recently that leave me wanting the capability to reach 911 with one button push.
When I have problems, I can not see good enough to find and push the phone button and 911.
It would be great if some how the [otherwise useless] PPT button could be programmed to call 911 and turn on the Speaker phone.
Thank you for any help or suggestions.

How to assign a contact to a button?
I have figured out that I can set up a contact with phone number of 911 and it will dial and connect ok. [tested with 411]
Is there a way to assign a contact to be dialed with one of the external buttons?
I have looked at AEButtons and it can not do it.
Thanks

Try assigning the PTT button to Voice Command and do it that way.
" .....dial rescue......."

Call back the sender of a text message?

Stupid question, I bet..
But I can't find this simple option.. if someone sends me a text message, I find it really difficult to call them instead of replying with a text message. I have to store their number first and then call them like a regular contact. Is there a faster way of doing this?
Thanks.

Just press Call (left) hardkey while reading that sms

I tried that, it gives me the dialer, but it doesn't call, nor copy the number so it could call...

i have the same problem
i have to copy and paste the number in the dialer
quite disappointing

you can just push the person's name...

You can by pressing the call button after opening the message, not from TF3D.
